The Cardinals’ TV situation is unraveling at the worst possible time. As attendance drops, payroll shrinks, and the rebuild takes hold, broadcast uncertainty has become another major problem the franchise must solve.

December 31, 2025 Why I’m Excited for Cardinals Baseball Again (Yes, Really)
The Cardinals were broken, and pretending otherwise only made it worse. Now, for the first time in decades, the franchise is truly starting over, and that matters more than the 2026 standings.
Bernie Miklasz explains why he is optimistic about Cardinals baseball again, not because of wins or payroll, but because the rebuild is finally real under new leadership.

December 30, 2025 Who Becomes the Cardinals Next Star in 2026?
The Cardinals are heading into 2026 with major lineup questions, and Bernie makes a bold call on who becomes the team’s next true star. If you want one name to circle for a breakout season, this is the argument, with stats, context, and the uncomfortable truths about the offense.
Bernie breaks down the top “rising star” candidates still on the roster from 2024 and 2025, why Masyn Winn is beloved but still a question offensively, why Alec Burleson’s bat is climbing fast, and why Iván Herrera is the clear No. 1 breakout pick if he stays healthy.

December 29, 2025 Why Mizzou Will NEVER Make the College Football Playoff Under Drinkwitz
Mizzou had an elite running game, a top-tier defense, and momentum, so how did it all fall apart? Bernie Miklasz breaks down why Missouri football stalled late in the season and why Eli Drinkwitz may have already reached his ceiling as head coach.
From historically bad passing metrics to head-scratching game management and ego-driven offensive control, this is a data-backed takedown of what went wrong and why the College Football Playoff remains out of reach.
